Where independence takes root.

Brightstone supports young adults with autism through real-world skill building, personalized coaching, and a supportive community—so they can move forward with confidence, and families can feel peace of mind.

Brightstone is a place to grow at your pace, with the right support.

At Brightstone, neurodivergent young adults build the tools they need to navigate life more independently. Whether that means learning to manage money, cook meals, build relationships, or prepare for college or work—we meet each person where they are. We work closely with families and referring professionals to create a path that’s thoughtful, personalized, and grounded in real progress.

Supporting Every Step Forward

Since opening in 2011, Brightstone has pioneered a community-based coaching and mentoring model that helps neurodiverse young adults build independence and confidence. For fifteen years, we’ve successfully supported hundreds of families — because the journey to independence is a team effort.
